Examples
Here are some useful applications for a Hunt Group:
Place the extensions of employees who work in a department sharing calls,
such as a customer service group, in a Hunt Group so that when a call
comes in to the receptionist it may be transferred to the next available
extension. This alleviates the problem of one employee receiving most of
the calls.
Place the extensions of employees who work in a department in a Hunt
Group and assign one or more outside lines to the group. Doing so lets
outside callers ring the group directly without having to be transferred by the
receptionist. For example, a mail-order company assigns the extensions of
its sales representatives to a Hunt Group and assigns a line to the group.
The company then publishes the number as its customer service number, so
that a caller can reach a sales representative directly to place an order.
